CVD Equipment Corporation Selected by CNT Technologies to Supply a Carbon Nanotube System for Use by Los Alamos National Laboratory

RONKONKOMA, N.Y., Aug. 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- CVD Equipment
Corporation (CVD) (Amex: CVV) has been selected by CNT Technologies (CNT)
to supply an EasyTube 3000 Carbon Nanotube System for use by Los Alamos
National Laboratory (LANL) to further develop the commercialization of
carbon nanotube fibers. Recent articles discussing the CNT and LANL
relationship are available at
http://www.lanl.gov/news/index.php?fuseaction=home.story&story_id=8855 and
http://www.freenewmexican.com/news/48187.html. The ultra strong,
lightweight carbon-nanotube fibers are stronger than steel and lighter in
weight. Applications abound for the use of these fibers in aircraft,
automobiles, defense and numerous other applications.
CVD started shipping the EasyTube & EasyWire 2000 and 3000 series early
this year and it has been well received by research scientists at numerous
Universities, Government and Industrial Research Laboratories throughout
the world. The EasyTube system is used for the growth of single and
multiwall aligned Carbon Nanotubes while the EasyWire system is used for
the growth of Nanowires used in electronic applications.
